bosch_headunit_root VS openpilot

1: Infotainment and nav, obviously. Typically two notable processors in here, one low-level microcontroller handling the CAN/whatever communication with the vehicle, in theory this is very strict about what it sends and receives. In practice, who knows. The second is typically a big multicore ARM running either Linux or Windows Embedded and handling the GUI, navigation, multimedia, bluetooth, and phone display mirroring. It's very much possible to bypass security and run new software on these through the USB port. And as you said, in the Jeep hack (quite old now, that was 2015) broke this remotely by coming through...

If the author is reading this, the version info screen shot[0] includes a unit serial number that can absolutely be traced back to you.

Perhaps this is not something you care about but worth highlighting.

Yes, but he spent several years in self-driving cars (https://comma.ai), which while interesting is also a space that a lot of players are in, so it's not the same as seeing him back to doing stuff that's a little more out there, especially as pertains to IP.

We have a product for sale: https://comma.ai

We raised $18.1M and have made $28M in lifetime revenue to date.

Where are you getting your narrative?

What about comma? https://comma.ai/ Seems like our old friend geohot built exactly what you want.

The issue was that the front camera on the windshield couldn’t see under the hood. You misunderstand how easy it is to solve for depth and distance with AI without requiring stereo cameras. Read https://github.com/commaai/openpilot

Nice to have: I want to get a self-driving add-on that supports some cars better than others. Not a must but high up on my nice-to-have list.

EDIT: I probably should have added that I currently have the base model of the Kona the lowest model available, and I am looking for a similar thing in the ioniq 6, because my understanding is that it's fully compatible with the comma.ai device and therefore I am not planning on getting the better on board driving system, the Kona that I got unfortunately was not compatible with that device.

I wonder how bad this is compared to the competition. https://comma.ai allows you to add self-driving features to a large number of non-Tesla cars so, if we’re including physical firmware hacks as a threat vector, I’d bet tons of alternative cars (new enough Honda Odysseys, Toyota Siennas, etc: probably anything with adaptive cruise control and lane following) have the same sort of potential vulnerability.

Not sure, but from the first article from 4 years ago:

>Last month, we had 1,209 cars drive a little over 1,000,000 miles

Let's say they've had zero growth since then, so 48,000,000 conservatively?

Actually, from their website [1]:

>100+ million miles driven and 10k users.
